Original material of the 12 taxa described as new by Bertoloni has been examined, and typification of their names isdiscussed. Lectotypes are designated for 11 of Bertoloni’s names, one (O. densiflora Bertol.) had been lectotypified before.Orobanche bicolor Bertol. (non C. A. Mey.) belongs to O. cernua L., O. cruenta Bertol. to O. gracilis Sm., O. stricta Moris exBertol. to O. schultzii Mutel, O. thyrsoidea Moris ex Bertol to O. rigens Loisel., O. crithmi Bertol. to O. minor Sm., O. vitalbaeBertol. to O. artemisiae-campestris Gaudin, O. fragrantissima Bertol. to O. lutea Baumg., O. laurina Bertol. to O. hederae Duby,O. yuccae Savi f. ex Bertol. to O. hederae Duby (not to O. minor Sm.), O. centaurina Bertol. to O. litorea Guss. (not to O.artemisiae-campestris Gaudin). O. australis Moris ex Bertol., included by Beck in O. canescens C. Presl, is a good speciesrestricted to Sardinia. O. densiflora Bertol. must not, as is customary, be ascribed to Reuter who republished it later.
